2nd generation here. My grandparents came to California in 1925. My mom is their 17th child. I loved growing up with all my aunties, uncles and cousins. This movie is accurately portraying Mexican/Americans it's my favorite movie. That little bit reminds me of my daughters uncle. He was 3 yrs. Old when I met him...just like that a little terror but we adored him.
Oh my God, I laughed so hard when I first saw "PINCHES GABACHOS!" All of the Mexican adults in the room became shocked at their own words, as they came from the mouth of a babe.
This is back story. He was an educated Latino from UCLA. He took his GF and her family to meet his family and they broke up. Memo couldn’t take it and had a mental breakdown and began to lash out at the world. During one of his outbursts he began committing crimes and got arrested and sent to prison
There's nothing wrong with your family embarrassing you once in awhile. He Should have explained it to his family and his girlfriend. "Dad I got my lady coming over ease up on the vato buried in the milpa. "Hey honey my familia is a little crazy. They may shock you at first but they are welcoming you to our familia."
@@Rockinruffhouser yea I can tell you that one dickhead trump supporter cousin at the family reunion guess what ur ass is still brown and ur a fucking tool lol
I feel like memo sometimes. Just to avoid being looked at wrong in a predominantly white state. I remember applying for jobs and wondering if I should put Alex as my name instead of Alejandro. I'm ashamed.
Hey, never be ashamed of who you are and where you come from! 2nd generation American here. I was and till my dying breath will be proud; that my grandparents came from the small village of Villagran, Guanajuato, Mexico and moms dad came from Jalisco. My own family has accused me of being white washed. Just because I had a semi white collar job and wore button ups and slacks to work. Never forget who you really are be proud!
The mom's face when he mentions that the Californio is buried in the back 🤣🤣 love this movie

Holy shit i just noticed memo is montana aka el Mero Mero

This part always cracked me up cause I was the only white kid in a Mexican dominated community. Thank fuck I wasn’t that WHITE. 🤣🤣
I thought I was pocho. Damn Memo is super pocho!!!!
Because he speaks perfect English?
@@Rockinruffhouser no because he seems culturally removed from his family. I think that’s the point Gregory Nava was making
Because this culture shames hispanic culture as being other, and synonomous with being lower class.
How am I just realizing that Memo is El Mero Mero?
“Man I do not give a good god damn who that taco-eatin’ mf” is lmao.
But I didn’t even realize until I read your comment hahaha

Memo is like Bill 😂😂😂
Those Kung Fu moves tho 😂
He ran out of them and then he just stood there yelling at them gabachos
I feel like Memo is the most successful, in that, he is also the most disappointing.
Yeah man, he’s such a cock!

@@Rockinruffhouser You Will never be mexican or american You have no identity . Familia es familia sin importar que pase
@@Rockinruffhouser I met a lot of them before,they're too big for their color of skin, se creen mucho y se averguenzan de su familia,de sus,raices

La onda
Oh come on White people ain’t that bad
yes they are
@@lmeda5569 culture shock is all. But they were ok. Great move e
@@lmeda5569 I love white people
The whole point is how different the culture is not how bad it is or whatever
I never saw this as a culture clash but more of a class clash. I don’t think those people have ever been around working class people before.
Dude was coward
Dude upgraded
Montana
